Tilda Swinton & Edward Norton Confirmed For Grand Budapest Hotel

December 27, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

tilda-swintonWes Anderson is lining up an even more impressive cast than usual for his next movie, The Grand Budapest Hotel, with Tilda Swinton, Adrien Brody, and Edward Norton joining the project. Jeff Goldblum, Harvey Keitel, Willem Dafoe, F. Murray Abraham, and Mathieu Amalric have also been confirmed to star.

Anderson revealed the news himself in an interview with THR, “Well, yes, it’s The Grand Budapest Hotel…It’s a Euro movie. It’s a period picture. I can tell you the cast…Maybe you already know the cast, but I can tell you properly who it is: We have Ralph Fiennes, and we have Tilda Swinton and Jeff Goldblum, Willem Dafoe, we have F. Murray Abraham and Jude Law, and we’ve got Adrien Brody, Edward Norton, Harvey Keitel,Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, and Mathieu Amalric. And I think Owen is gonna have a little part, too. Oh, Saoirse Ronan has quite a big part. I’m thinking if I’ve forgotten anybody. Yeah, we have a good group.”

Bill Murray, Ralph Fiennes, Jude Law, Owen Wilson, Jason Schwartzman, and Saoirse Ronan had previously been confirmed to star. The film takes place 85 years ago in a Hungarian hotel and should start shooting early next year.

Saoirse Ronan Books Into The Grand Budapest Hotel

Saoirse Ronan hasn’t really done much in the world of comedy, but she’s going in that direction, even if Wes Anderson doesn’t create your usual type of comedies. Variety reports that Ronan has signed on for a major role in Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel.

No details have been revealed about actress’ character, but that’s not surprising as Anderson has been keeping the plot of the movie under his hat. All that is known about the story is that it is set 85 years ago in a Hungarian hotel. It’s said the film is inspired by classic movies from the likes of Billy Wilder and Ernst Lubitsch.

Bill Murray, Ralph Fiennes, Jude Law, Jason Schwartzman, and Owen Wilson are all attached to star, with production is scheduled to begin next year in Germany.

Ralph Fiennes Books Into Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel

Over the years Wes Anderson has built up a trusty stable of actors, such as Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray, who he’s used over and over again, but that doesn’t mean he won’t use new actors. Ralph Fiennes is an Anderson newbie, but he’s just signed up to work with the director on his new movie, Grand Budapest Hotel, according to Variety.

The actor will play M. Gustave, the ‘perfectly composed concierge’ who works in the titular hotel. Wes Anderson confirmed last month that Bill Murray is starring in an unspecified role, although he also debunked a rumor that Johnny Depp will be involved. The filmmaker has also been reported to recruit Jude Law and Angela Lansbury to star.

Wes Anderson is directing from his own original screenplay. It isn’t known when production will begin.
